Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Language: English. About The Book: In this book, the author wrote his experiences during his time in India, where he personally witnessed distressing practices such as widow burning, the challenges faced by pilgrims at the Juggernaut Temple, the exposure of the sick and deceased along the Ganges, and other cruel acts associated with Hinduism. Upon returning to his home country in 1826, the author dedicated himself to raising awareness and advocating for the suppression of these issues. He published multiple editions of pamphlets, including "The Suttees' Cry to Britain," "Pilgrim Tax in India," "Ghaut Murders in India," and "Infanticide in India." With the support of friends, these pamphlets were distributed to government officials across different presidencies in India. The author's efforts were acknowledged and appreciated by Lord W. Bentinck, the Governor General of India, who expressed his concern for the Suttee issue. The Governor General also encouraged suggestions to promote national industry, enhance commerce, improve education, and foster the general prosperity and happiness of the British empire in India. About The Author: James Peggs (1793–1850) was a British Baptist missionary in British India known for his efforts in spreading Christianity. He worked closely with William Bampton in Cuttack, Orissa, where they preached and evangelized. In 1832, Peggs published "India’s Cries to British Humanity," addressing issues like infanticide, idolatry, Ghau murders, Sati, slavery, and colonization in India. He sought to influence the British Parliament's review of the East India Company's charter, advocating for stricter measures against Hindu customs and practices, particularly Sati. The powerful image of a burning Hindu widow featured in his book was widely circulated to raise awareness and rally support for the abolition of Sati, contributing to public opinion and the extension of the Company's charter.
